has the place of honor, in charmingly
written paper on ''Realism and 1dealism. u
The Story of Zebehr Pasha, the man who
has had SO much 10 do with Gordon and
Stanley, is related as taken from his own
lips. Two interesting literary papers,
Invention and Imagination" and THE
Present State of the Novel," the latter by
George Saintsbury, will be found attractive
reading, as will also the sketch of literature
at the antipodes, Australian Literature.

of one of the most romantic episodes OF
history is given in the sketch of ''Masaniel'
To-" and the article on "Count Tolstoi," the
Russian novelist, discusses one of the most
talked of men of recent period. There

Those who remember "The Hoosier
Schoolmaster" will be pleased to welcome
Mr.. Eggleston in his last contribution to
fiction: 1.-The Graysons." The illustration
of turning the Bible will waken smile from
grave sire and quiet matron az they recall
similar sorceries practiced in young life to
determine their matrimonial future.

history of the evolution of the sweet COM
modify that pleases the palate from Mother
Earth, and an excellent description OF the
sable helpers in the process. The lllustra-
tons are not fancy sketches but must be
veritable copies of actual bcenes and faces.
An article by Mr.. NJ. G. VanRinsselaer is
full of artistic pleasure. Saint Gaudcns, wfo
has added to his fame in his statue of Lin

for higher estimates of art. His work in
different cities has raised the standard Of
sculpture, and any notes of him and his
methods find eager readers among those
who love art.

They Are ALARM ed Lest the Manufacturers
Fail Them.
Special to the Gazet,e.
WASHINGTON, Dec. s The wool grow
ers and wool dealers who are in conven-
ton in this city held an informal confer
ence at The E 1bett last night with closed
doors, but from informal conversations
with individual members and q gen.
eral report of the conference, which
leaked out in spite of the attempted Sc
crtCy, il seems that the wOolmen, espe-
cially the growers and western dealers,
sre considerably alarmed. In the first
place the wooden manufacturers who
were invited to attend appear to oe
holding aloof, while the heaviest dealers
in foreign wool are evidently not in favor
Of the hOped-fOr raise in duties. Il is
thought that the manufacturers disincli-
nstion TO come forward and unite in
petition TO Congress for further protection
10 wool may mean that they lean in the
other direction and have henkering
after free raw material. The general
opinion is well expressed by Mr.. A. E
Shepherd of Texas. one of the largest
Tsnchmen and woolgrowers in the country:
"We are in 8 bad shape" he said. "Fne
Texas growers are hard pressed and are
g=ttlrg discouraged. Mt single con-
gresham from our state will help US, and
yet there are certain injustices which
could be righted by the Treasury Depart
ment, if Congress will not aid US. For
instance, SMYRNA and Donscoi woods,
which go largely into the manufacture of
cheviots, are entered st q cents per
pound. That was fsir enough, perhaps,
ten or fifteen years ago. but the forelgn
growers of these woods have been cross
lhg their native stock with fine merinos
50 that now these woods ought to pay 10
to l21 cents pound. Then there is
good deal Of differentiation in another
direction. Low grade wool which is en-
tered as waste eventually finds It's way
into the worsted factories. But the out
look for reIi, is gloomy"
Mr.. II Mitchell of the firm of Biener-
stock Co ST. Louis, gave the position
of western dealers: "We must have pro-
lection or the wool rsisers will 60 to the
wall. The eastern manufacturers must
stand 5y us. II they are so short sighted
SIS to demand free wool they may expect
to see the whole woolen schedule go
with it.n

The Importance Of the Sorghum Crop to
Southern Farmers.

Aho IL lb6 SLOP ~
Southern Farmers.
Southern Live Stock Journal.
There is no better crop to grow for for
age, none other will yield larger guam
tity Of excellent hay than sorghum. A
great msnY southern farmers and stock
men within the psst few years have dis
covered this to be a fact, and plant
greater or lesser quantity OF
1t for forage. The number OF
those who DO this is largely on
the increase. But do they raise their
own seed, or bug such as is grown near
home? We fear tina the grester number
purchase northern grown seed. This
ought not to he. The marketable price
for welI-cleaned SORGHUM seed is all the
way from so cents to 81 per bushel. An
acre of sorghum Will yield from flies y
TO twenty five bushels of clean seed
Can the farmer afford to purchase seed
from a distance when he can raise them
so cheaply? The value of the seed as )
marketable crop will more than pay fo1
the entire cost OF raising and handling
the cane; ana if syrup is made OF the
cane the syrup is clear profit.
